I sent your info to Greg Harwood the Land Rover guy. along with a note
asking what he wants to do. I know that he's taken on more than he has time
for but I'm sure he'll work his way through all that crap eventually.
I did spot something in the mess that, to me, looks like an MGC bonnet.
check photo #57. Isn't that from an "C"?
And weren't most of the MGCs the GTs? I don't think I saw many convertibles
back then.
Yeah I've been amazed at what has happened to the price of Giuliettas.
especially the Sprint Speciales .. geez. I always preferred the slightly
newer ones for some of the minor detail improvements and for the 5-speed and
. well. I think I prefer the 1600 engine. As it is none of 'em are
over-powered. even by anemic British Car standards.
And hey being honest here. I know it's a little shallow but really the later
bonnet with the wider scoops looks a lot cooler.
Trouble is I can't think of any good reason to get a long desired over
another Brit car, considering that I could probably get a semi decent Jag Mk
II for the price of a so-so Alfa.
